I received the following mail a few days back.I found it interesting.
Dear Sir/s,
We have created a list of 700 sanskrit words which are used on a regular basis in day-to-day Tamil language in both spoken and written forms. We are in the process of updating this list.
The file is available under the heading ‘Sanskrit Words in Tamil’ at the following address
http://sanskritroots.com/sanskrit-and-tamil/
The list contains the equivalent of such words in Hindi and share similar phonetics. We are in the process of updating the corresponding words in Bengali, Gujarati, Marati etc.,
The objective behind the above effort is to enable Tamil students to understand, how they are already familiar with words which are used in other languages ,as well. With a bit of extra effort, they can clearly master many other Indian languages. This would make them multi-lingual, which is a major draw back for anybody trying to pursue a career opportunity outside of Tamilnadu.
Also the site www.sanskritroots.com contains opinions on Sanskrit by learned scholars like Dr. Abdulkalam, Swami Vivekananda, Mahatma Gandhi and others.
Since your site is focussed on Sanskrit , we thought a review of the above effort by yourselves would enable reaching out to a larger audience.
Thanks and Regards
Sanskrit Roots.
